    The Freedom of the Seas is At Sea Today

     

     

    Good Morning Everyone,

     

    A beautiful morning in the western Caribbean today. It is still dark outside but I can see thousands of stars from my balcony. The Freedom is headed into the wind so it is a bit blustery with a few scattered white caps on the waves.

     

    Today is the last day of the cruise and it will be a busy day. Culinary opportunities abound!

     

    Breakfast in the Windjammer

     

    A Diamond & Diamond Plus Breakfast in the Deck 5 MDR at 9:30

     

    Lunch in the Deck 3 MDR at Noon

     

    Snacks in the Windjammer at 3:00 pm

     

    Dinner in the Deck 3 MDR at 6:00 PM

     

    I haven't seen the Moon from my balcony yet on this cruise. Tonight I may have to go out and look for it. I am sure it is still here somewhere.

     

    Have a wonderful day!:)

  4. I just wanted to tell any and all that those coming down for either a visit or cruising that we have the most awesome weather - cool in the evenings and beach weather during the day - walked the beach the other afternoon and it all felt so great and what a relief from such a bitter winter for us Floridians - come on down my friends and take time to relax and have a great time.

    ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!

    just me

     

     

    DH & I will be there in exactly 3 wks and I can't wait!:D Thank you for all the great info, it helped us plan our pre and post cruise accomodations!:)

  5. 1. A checklist made in advance - or right after a cruise - is the best cure for carrying too many clothes. My DW, PegEgg, has a checklist for our packing. The way she packs, we can unpack four bags in under 7 minutes. (Yes, I've clocked it.)

    2. Swollen feet is probably the number one complaint I've heard from the ladies. I know that PegEgg changes socks several times a day, and she brings flats for after dinner.

    9. As for arriving late to dinner, not only does it stress the waiter and the assistant waiter, but it alienates your fellow diners. It means that every course is served late. If your fellow diners have commitments after dining, they will either be late for it or will have to leave early. If my brother, Rich, has to leave early and miss dessert, you will be mentioned — in anger — the remainder of the evening.

    11. "Take to everyone and use their names." What a great suggestion. We write down the waiter's, assistant waiter's, cabin steward's, and dining mates' names. Then, we make it a point to use them. To aid others in learning our names, we wear 3"x5" name tags. "People like people like them." Using each other's names aids in the communications process.

     

     

    Great advice, thanks for sharing!!!:)

  6. I appreciate all the help we had from the Cruise Critic Boards in planning our trip and want to help others. I have put together what I hope is the Holy Grail for the Freedom of the Seas Eastern Caribbean itinerary.

     

    It includes photos, menu's, Compasses, excursion info and more.

    If you have anything I am missing, please send it to me so I can add it.
